Why this game was revived?

[Monk]

I always loved this game and had always installed it on my pc until it became almost dead. And then new patch revived the game and players are back. Why is that? Some new game from same devs is coming or what?

[CalicoJack]

Because the game is awesome!

Now go and play it!
And buy some copies for your friends!

I don't know why, they've still not fixed ♥♥♥♥ like the push-up bug and the terrible hit reg, guns not shooting half the time, high ping in almost every populated server...

The sole reason for the revival is the fact that the game was only a dollar plus tax. A few thousand people bought it and then a lot of veteran came back as well but I'm certain the game will be back to it's dead status in a month or two.

or maybe the new players will love it and keep supporting the game and then another sale like that can revive it further

the game is awesome, problem is just a over saturation of FPS games. arma3,arma reforger,squad,cod,dayz,rust, hero shooters,hunt,fortnite,easy red 2, enlisted, squad 44, hell let loose, gray zone (gray zone kinda steps on rs2 jungle setting), battlefield, im sure there is more

And none have the same arcade/sim balance as RS2. But yes this isn't like in the mid 2000's where you only had a a handful of good multiplayer shooters to pick from. There's so many now you can't play them all and have to stick to one or two.

Some of the games you mentioned have almost no players, such as Easy Red 2 (a funny WW2 game made by like one person?). The hype train has left Gray Zone within a few months of release and now peaks at 800 players daily.

It was the patch that purported to fix the VOIP problems that have plagued the game since they integrated it with Epic some years ago. Most people had no comms; some heard other servers or ones they had left. Many have still been playing despite this (with friends available to chat outside the game it's OK) but having to type to your squad or team makes any form of tactical gameplay impossible. Saying that, tonight I had no comms so perhaps it's not fixed.

new update fixed its biggest issue+it went for sale at the same time. Maybe a lot of ex players started recommending it to their friends.
